Tap title to read story
Milwaukee. On Friday Jacob Misiorowski reached 103.6 mph and held the New York Yankees to two hits over six innings as the Brewers blanked the Yankees 6-0, and on Saturday William Contreras tied the game in the eighth and delivered a game-ending sacrifice fly in the 10th to give Milwaukee a 4-3 victory.
This week the results left the Yankees with consecutive losses despite a six-inning, scoreless performance from Cam Schlittler that lowered his ERA to 1.35; Brandon Lockridge was carted off Friday after a knee collision with an unpadded wall, and managers will assess bullpen usage and injuries as the teams continue the road and home schedules.
